Description
No. 16 King Street is an attached house, now used as an office, dating from around 1665 with 18th-century window features. The building has a rendered timber-frame construction, and its roof is not visible. It stands four storeys tall with a basement and has a one-window range. Each floor features shallow jetties with fascia boards, and there is an 18th-century timber parapet with a shallow pediment in front of the gable. The ground floor has a 19th-century shop front, which includes outer doorways with scrolled consoles on either side of the jetty, six-panel doors, and a 19th-century eight-pane shop window above a panelled stall riser. The windows are horned 10/10-pane sashes, with larger ones on the first floor.
Inside, there is a central right-hand framed newel stair above the ground floor, featuring an uncut string, turned balusters, square newels with ball finials, and a roll-topped rail. The door frames have ovolo mouldings and cyma stops, and there is a moulded ground-floor beam supported by a turned samson post, which may have originally been a ship's spar. The gable was set back during an 18th-century modernization.
